Cut Back Lantana After Leaf Drop

Q. You said trim Lantana in February.  Wouldn’t it be OK to
cut them back in December, or when they appear to be dormant?  

Lantana cut back in the winter by landscape company. It could be cut back more than this with no problems. See where it is growing from at the base? You could cut it back this much.

A.  Yes, any time after leaf drop. I give people a specific date so they can mark their calendar and get it done. Those of you more involved in your landscape should understand the principles better so you can apply them just as you are doing.
